Week 3

Hit the ground running this day, had the sides glued to the neck and tail blocks in a matter if minutes of walking through the door. Looking like a guitar now.

Shaping the back bracing was the next task. This took many hours of planeing chiseling and sanding but I found it one of the most satisfying jobs thus far (excuse my Latin).

Basic shape was made with the good ól block plane

 

I then scalloped the edges and hit with sandpaper for a clean up.

Almost done

And bingo!
